This change replaces all uses of rootwrap with a trivial privsep-based equivalent. This replacement simply executes commands as the privsep user *without any additional checks*. There are 2 reasons why this is a reasonable thing to do: 1. We don't have a good workflow for merging rootwrap filter changes into parent projects (nova/cinder) for a loosely-coupled library like os-brick. 2. The previous situation was also insecure. The os-brick.filters rootwrap config permitted commands like "dd" and "cp" with any arguments, as root. This would have posed only a mild inconvenience to an attacker. With privsep we can at least (in principle) limit the commands to the privsep uid/gid and Linux capabilities (CAP_SYS_ADMIN by default with this change). This change addresses the urgency of (1). Later refactors will take greater advantage of privsep to address (2).
